Trump is much fonder of the world's most brutal autocrats than he is America's allies -- or the countries that were our allies before he retook power.

People need to understand this: Trump did not leave office willingly the first time. If his health holds up, he will not leave office willingly this time. He is not joking about serving more than two terms.

I'm convinced most people do not pay attention to politics -- that they make their voting opinions on one or two TV ads they see, pre-held beliefs, and what their buddies say. That means they are mostly misinformed and not voting based on the reality of events. www.cnn.com/2025/02/20/p...

Correct. He’s not capable of playing multidimensional chess. Or chess. Or checkers. Or tic-tac-toe. As one of his aides put it during Shit Show I, “he’s just eating the pieces” on the board. Nothing he does is strategic. He’s purely guided by narcissistic, sociopathic impulses at all times.

DOGE having access to Americans' Social Security data isn't just a major security breach. It's part of a deliberate ploy to cut benefits — using the false pretext of "waste and fraud" — and have Congress use the savings to give billionaires another giant tax cut. Be warned.

The greatest political scandal today is not what Trump is doing. It is the fact that congressional Republicans have given up their role in the constitutional system as a check on the executive branch. If we are in a constitutional crisis, it is as much on Mike Johnson and John Thune as anyone else.

Trump got himself elected to ensure he could avoid criminal prosecution, then he turned the country over to Elon Musk. He’s not working for the American people, he’s golfing.
